  • @paulketchupwitheverything767

    Good looking R9. Interesting top without jumping out too much. I prefer pick guards fitted, too. Gives it more of an old jazz guitar feel. I know it's more of a 1959 appropriate thing to have an ABR-1 type bridge but I worry that the posts that are screwed into the top are a bit spindly (Not that I've a problem with similar looking ones on a 70s LP Deluxe).

  • @petset77

    That you're doing detailed reviews of these types of instruments is commendable. I do have to wonder how many of the people dropping six grand on a replica of a vintage guitar actually hit the road and PLAY in front of live audiences. The rusty hardware on my instruments came from my own sweat and booze!!!

  • @robnamowicz8073
    @robnamowicz8073 Před 6 měsíci

    Tip from 'delete department.' If your Les Paul top is not damaged by the pickguard hardware mounting screw, the two remaining screw holes, at the neck and the bout edge can be plugged by a truss rod mounting screw. This cleans things up and if you ever want to remount the pickguard the holes are still there. "Perfection is nothing left to take away."

    I don't usually like the honey or lemon bursts because its just to light of a finish. This one i like because it is a darker shade. If im going to have a guitar with analin dye on it i prefer it heavy . Whether its grain filled or not. I was gettimg the Greeny vibes or Slash Vibes from this R9 also. I say no pick guard. The second Studio that i bought as a result of watching this show the Vintage Dirty Cherry refinished came with a pickguard not installed. But it had no screws. I could not decide if I wanted to put it on or not. I polled friends and family also a Gibson fan site and most said no pickguard. It looks good with or without. But its be refinished to nicely to cover it up. When you started talking about what you like about this top and you pointed to the side without a pickguard it almost looked like some tried to scribe their name or some lettering on it. Almost looks like it says Ben. I almost forgot to thank the viewer who did the new guitar day purchase for sharing his guitar with us. Congratulations and enjoy.

    Nice Choice Frank! A R9 Murphy Lab, just has a unique feel. Not just about looks. Smell amazing too. Gibson gets you now with, smell, tone, vibrations, feel, looks plus when your playing the guitar with a zipper shirt, doesn’t matter anymore. I have not tried but I bet the R9 taste good too. I would not trade mine for anything. When you play a standard 50s USA, then play the R9, ruined for life. I keep saying R9 but it was a struggle to choose it over the R8. Not a fan of the R0 (NECK) at all.

    Does anyone know how Gibson gets the specs for R9’s? Are they using a CMM to collect data points from an original?

    I have exactly that model, but the top on mine is simpler. I love it anyway.

    I got a 59 reissue dirty lemon and a new lp standard custom color 23 but let’s be honest the custom shop is much better then a standard and you definitely can hear the difference.Dont get me wrong the lp standard is badass but the CS is just better!

    Are you able to buy custom shop R9s or R0s that have NO aging whatsoever? Can they make it as if you took a time machine back to 1959, bought it brand new off the rack, and then brought back to today?
    It kinda sounds like there was some hum going on in part of the playing demo. It sounded like possibly a grounding issue or maybe its just part of the recording.
